September 30th is International Podcast Day (IPD) and The Magic Word is helping by posting this special podcast featuring some of the Friends of The Magic Word. The purpose of IPD is to create more awareness of podcasts and encourage more people to listen to podcasts. There are over 100,000 English speaking podcasts available today covering about any interest you can imagine...and some you cannot imagine.
There are less than a dozen magic-related podcasts and we all have our own personalities, niche and audience. The Magic Word Podcast focuses on casualness and curiosity. There is no particular agenda in our conversations. They are more like the conversations you would have with your friends, but they are always informative and cover some aspect of magic, performing and creativity. They also let you go "deeper" into subjects and let you get to know the guest on a more personal level allowing you to often find out things that you never knew about them. Sometimes the conversations go "off the rail" in a direction never envisioned. And that's when they become really interesting.
Here are a few people you may know who like and endorse The Magic Word Podcast.
